Biography

Born: December 8, 1947, Nashville, Tennessee; Died: May 27th, 2017, Savannah, Georgia Brother to [a=Duane Allman], Married to actress and singer [a17961] from 1975 to 1979. Early on the two brothers played in the bands [a=The Escorts (16)] and [a=The Allman Joys]. After moving to California they landed a contract with [l13531] Records and renamed their band to The [a=Hour Glass]. After two psychedelic releases, which Duane didn't like, they split up. Liberty wanted Gregg to go solo after the breakup of Hour Glass. However, Gregg became tired of the solo arrangement and rejoined his brother Duane in his newly formed group when they needed a singer. This was the beginning of [a=The Allman Brothers Band]. Allman began a solo career with [Link] in 1973. He gained some additional fame for his 1975 to 1978 marriage to pop star Cher. He had an unexpected late-career hit with his cover of the song "[Link]" in 1987, and his seventh solo album, [Link] (2011), saw the highest chart positions of his career. Throughout his life, Allman struggled with alcohol and substance use, which formed the basis of his memoir My Cross to Bear (2012). Gregg Allman died on May 27, 2017, due to complications from liver cancer. He was 69 years old. His final album, [Link], was released posthumously on September 8, 2017.

LYRICS

Don't care how long she's gone
Don't care how long she's stays
Don't care how long she's gone
Don't care how long she's stays
She's a rolling stone
She'll roll back home some day
She's a rolling stone
She'll roll back home some day
When the train turned yonder
I thought I heard it blow
When the train turned yonder
I thought I heard it blow
I'm going to bring my suitcase
Please, please let me go
I'm going to bring my suitcase
Please, please let me go

The train rolled off
She waved her hands at me
The train rolled off
She waved her hands at me
I looked out the window
As far as I could see
I looked out the window
As far as I could see

The last time I saw her
Standing in the station crying
The last time I seen her
She was standing in the station crying
She told a friend
Yonder goes that man of mine
She told a friend
Yonder goes that man of mine

Love make a poor man
Wish he was dead and gone
Love make a poor man
Wish he was dead and gone
'Cause the woman he loves
Is gone and left him all alone
'Cause the woman that he loved
Has left him all alone

Looks like I ain't seen her
Six long months today
Looks like I ain't seen her
Six long months today
Love make a poor man
Grieve and walk away
Love makes a poor man
Grieve and walk away

I don't care how long she's gone
I don't care how long she's stays
I don't care how long she's gone
I don't care how long she's stays
She's a rolling stone
She'll roll back home some day
She's a rolling stone
She'll roll back home some day
